| I have finally got the centerboard trunk in place and the hatch frame is being glued up. The centerboard trunk is offset to the right side of the keel so the pivot bolt can go through the keel. This keeps potential water leaks out of the cabin. |

| The inside of the centerboard trunk is fiberglassed with 3 coats of 20% graphite filled epoxy. Installing the trunk in the boat at this time was a major task. It is offset so it fastens to the side of the keel. This way the pivot bolt goes through the keel and is not inside the hull to leak |
